PEPP-J~L~;:
This week's Retirees Day saw 57 members out
on one of the nicest days the gang has had thus far,
this season, nice sunshine, just a breeze enough to
keep it from being too hot and everyone seemed to
thoroughly enjoy it.
We played bingo, bango, bongo for the first time
this season, low gross, low net, hidden bole, high on
No. 6, long putt on No. 9, and closest to the pin on No.

5.

Marcel Proulx had 11 BBB points to win, low
gross went to Jim Scott in a draw ·with Sam Anselmo, both with 40's. In low net it was Joe Riley
winning over Willie Scott, Bill Orencbuck and Bob
Miller, also in a draw, after all finished at 34.
Jack McDonald won the high hidden hole in
which he had fairly close competition from a couple
of others while Wes Tanner took CP on No. 5 with a
shot that stopped seven feet short of the cup. In the
long putt on No. 9 we had to go by the rule which
says a putt does not count if it is off the putting
surface. Al Turner, on bis return from sick bay,
sank one that way so we gave the ball to Sam
Martin, whose ball was on the putting surface.
Sorry Al, but I guess rules are there for a reason and
should be followed when at all possible. ·
Nest week it will be Joe Bielll, Dave Nicol and
Torchy Torresan .on the job. We understand that this
is holiday time and people are out of town for one
reason or another. During the past few weeks Bart
and I have been giving some guys some insight on
the job of score-keeping and it has been very
gratifying to see how these chaps have caught on.
We would like to run it off a notice board but to
do this we have to use too many guys on a day,
which is a little difficult at times. So, come on guys
and offer. If you are not because you do not know the
score, one of the boys will help and we won't press
you. But, we need you! Thanks, in advance, for
offering.
Little League has done its part for baseball in
Trail, thanks in a big way to remarkable Andy
Bilesky. To tell you the truth, I'm really looking
forward to seeing these national championships this
year right in our own area. I'm sure they'll be all
that's expected of them and if Trail should win their
part, that would be the icing on the cake.
And now, before I wear out the ink in my pen,
I'll say.
'Til next time, then!
